Proton 10.0-1 handles the game almost perfectly except it doesn't run the videos OOTB; for that, I switched to the GE fork.
6.1-GE-2
It's not as bad as I remember from the last time I tested this game, but general sluggishness still makes it a bad experience. PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command% seems to improve it further a tiny bit, but not enough to make it playable. Loading times are significantly better this time, but still longer than they should be.
FMVs play only if Proton GE is used with PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command% in the launch options; no FMVs at all with vanilla Proton, and there's only sound during the video in Proton GE without the launch option.
At the very least the text is now readable OOTB in both normal Proton and GE, so the only thing that holds it back is the performance.
It seems most of the performance issues was due to game being ran from ntfs-partition. Loading times have dropped in less than one tenth part compared to ntfs. Navigating menus work, but doing anything that involves units takes still closer to a second. Battles work and could be played in theory, but are very jerky and tedious because of the delay. Also movies don't play (missed that from my earlier report).
UnknownExtreme performance issues. Every action is delayed. Even mouse clicking in menus takes half a second to register. Loading game, eventually moving in menus or doing anything meaningful takes much much longer. Battles seem to work with similar delay that menus have and are very slow. Loading a battle took ridiculous amount of time (maybe 5 to 10 minutes).

Seems to be working well, but videos don't seem to play.
FMVs don't play, but it's easy to skip them. Text doesn't show properly, all the characters are replaced with closing square brackets. There are very long loading times and the game is overall sluggish and not very responsive - loading a save takes a solid minute, and the game can take seconds processing actions in battles and menus that would normally be instant. VN sections seem to run fine other than the glitched text.
visual novel part works, but the fighting part just has a black screen; logs are spammed with 99946.549:0008:0009:trace:module:LdrGetDllHandle L"DPSACT2.ADE" -> (nil) (load path L"Z:\mnt\olhdd\steam\steamapps\common\War of the Human Tanks;C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam;C:\windows\system32;C:\windows\system;C:\windows;.;C :\windows\system32;C:\windows;C:\windows\system32\wbem")
UnknownWinXP-style application window appears and menu items can be clicked and opened, but all window content/game shows is a black screen. Game installed on NTFS partition.
